On our recent trip to Austria to visit the Fröling plant; we received a tour of the Bäuerliche Bioenergy Plant. The approximate 3 Megawatt plant supplies heat to 23 customers including the Fröling (boiler manufacturer) and Pöttinger (agricultural machinery) manufacturing facilities, a school, and a large apartment complex. The plant was completed about 4 years ago at a cost of about 3 million Euros. There is also a biomass CHP plant on site that produces more than enough electricity to operate the biomass plant.
